Hell, we do that at the office. Though now I think we need some gold stars.
So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish. Went mad with hunger. Hallucinated a whole bunch.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Ow Steph, it does seem unfair of the universe to pile it on that way. {Edited to add that was in response to migraine on top of sickness}
So many onerous tasks lately. Moving boxes, gluing chests of drawers, stripping rust from metal, looking for a reliable body shop to bring the car, back-to-school onerosity (yes, it's its own category). I'm not even including the visit to the lawyer to take care of the estate because that was just fine. I am ready for pleasant and deeply satisfying task day. When is it?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
That's what I call a view!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Wow. That is amazing, Connie.
In other news, I have to brag a bit. Instead of my usual workout, I checked my maximums. I can now chest press 110 pounds and squat 185. I've been giddy about this all evening.
That said, I will be taking a lot of ibuprofen before going to bed...

Impressive, Anne!

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Anne, that's so badass. I really need to get serious about weights. You're such an inspiration.

Thank you! I've gotten so much out of weight lifting, not just physically, but mentally as well.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I caught up in Natter! I wasn't sure that would ever happen.
I should be cleaning all the things since my parents are coming to visit in two days. I just realized their last visit was in 2006. Wow.
I should also be putting together my application materials for the job I've been doing since mid-November. For my references, should I just include their current title/place of employment or that plus the places we worked together?

I think the second one? Although it kinda seems like you ought to be able to just say "I accept the position" and be done with it at this point.
